How to Access from Off-Campus or Using Campus Wi-Fi
You can access a Windows desktop session using your PC, Laptop, Tablet, or Smartphone from off-campus (Home, work, etc.) anywhere you have Internet connectivity.
- Watch the video GNTC VDI Access for Students for more information.
Additionally, you can access a Windows desktop session from anywhere on campus using the GNTC Student wireless network. This wireless network connection currently exists at the Floyd County, Walker County, Gordon County, and Catoosa County campus locations. It will be available soon at our Polk County and Whitfield/Murray County Campus locations.
The steps to connect through VMWare Horizon to access the Windows desktop are the same for both of these scenarios once you have established an Internet connection. No special software is required on your device. However, in certain scenarios, your experience may be improved by installing a small client software piece on your device. See the Install Horizon Client Software section below for details.
